Troubleshooting
The VL70-m is a very versatile tone generator
with many features and functions that affect
operation. In many cases, what appears to be a
fault with the VL70-m can actually be traced to an
improperly set parameter or something as simple as
a bad connection.
Here’s how to determine if the problem is internal
(e.g. parameter settings) or external (e.g. connec-
tions, amplifier, etc.):
Listen via headphones. Plug a pair of head-
phones into the VL70-m and play. If the
headphone sound is OK, then the problem is
most likely in the amplifier or mixer you are
using, or the audio connection cables.
Try adjusting all operational controllers —
modulation wheels, foot controllers, etc. In
some cases extreme controller settings can
cause unexpected sound or pitch … or even no
sound at all.
Try selecting different voices. If the problem
occurs only on one voice then the voice param-
eters are most likely at fault. If the problem
occurs on all voices then a utility parameter
should be suspected.
The following are some common problems and
probable causes:
Symptom
No power.
Possible Causes
Is the AC adaptor properly connected to both
the VL70-m and an AC wall outlet (page 15)?
If the AC apaptor is connected to a switched
AC outlet on another piece of equipment (an
amplifier, for example) is that devide switched
on?
